Greenbike’s bike tour in Ubud is a 5+ hr tour which included breakfast, lunch and a sampling of local treats. Unexpectedly, it also included transfers from our hotel which was extraordinary value (and very convenient). The tour explores Balinese culture and community through a scenic bike ride on quiet country roads and off the beaten track. We visited a traditional Balinese home, sampled Indonesia’s famed luwak coffee, stopped by Bali’s second largest temple and finished the tour at the rice fields. It was a meandering 22 km round trip, best of all mostly downhill. Our guides ensured our road safety and remained vigilant throughout. Riding the backroads roads and narrow trails, known only to locals was a highlight. As an occasional recreational rider only, I especially enjoyed the trickier trail parts that were unpaved, rocky, puddle-ridden. Tips: As we travelled to/from Ubud from Nusa, we experienced Bali’s snarled traffic. It made for a long day but it was worthwhile. While the torrential rain in Nusa didn’t instill confidence initially, it eventually subsided. We appreciated the overcast, cooler day. Trust the experts at Greenbike to gauge the contingency plan. A special thanks to our guides Amin and Ketut for sharing their insights, and to Rina at Seek Sophie who responded quickly and efficiently to my questions beforehand.

Lovely to get out of the touristy parts of Bali. Loved the ride there and back again. Informative tour of the coffee plantation, and professional tasting experience. We bought a lot of coffee to take home and hand out as souvenirs from our trip.

Our sailing trip through Komodo Island was absolutely unforgettable! The crew made everything feel so personal and effortless — they even managed to capture the most beautiful candid moments without us noticing. The food was delicious (seriously, every meal was a treat!), and the sleeping accommodations were super comfortable. Everything about the trip felt thoughtful and well done. Would 100% do it again!

Fanum and the rest of the crew on board were amazing! What a jam packed day with amazing stops. What we loved the most about this tour is that is leaves earlier than all of the other tours so every spot you visit is almost private with very few other people there! The other tours were always showing up in mass numbers as we were leaving. The view at Padak was beautiful (and we saw deer and a baby komodo), we saw 6 komodo dragons on komodo Island with three great guides (provided), we saw a couple of turtles and several reef sharks while snorkeling, snorkeled with 8 massive mantas, saw beautiful coral and tons of different species of fish. The provided lunch (everyone else got chicken but we asked for vegetarian or pescatarian and got some local fish) was delicious and there was more than enough food available. Bananas, water and coca-cola provided all day as many as you want. Highly recommend this tour, well worth the money and overall incredible experience.

My husband and I had a great experience traveling around Komodo National Park with Alexandria Cruise! Getting to Padar Island before the other tourists was a huge plus - we had about 30 minutes of it all to ourselves. The rest of the day was relaxed as we were the only 2 people on the tour for the day, so the guides were flexible with what we wanted to do. The boat was clean (though no toilet aboard), the lunch was pretty good, and the guides were professional and kind. Would definitely recommend if you're looking for a 1-day Komodo Island boat tour!
